Notes

Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips
  • Get creative with this recipe and add any type of candy and mix-ins you like. This is a perfect vessel for leftover Halloween candy pieces.
  • Be sure to let the dry ingredients cool completely before adding any candy to the mix.
  • This can be stored in an airtight container, on the countertop, or in the pantry, for up to one week. I store mine in a very large glass jar with an airtight seal.
